Kata Scott, that twenty three year old woman who has
been missing for over a week. Keon King, twenty one,
turned himself into law enforcement on Tuesday, as confirmed by
(00:22):

is being accused of abducting Scott, she has not been
located since her last known whereabouts on October four. Authorities
are currently searching for King's vehicle, described as a gold
nineteen ninety nine Toyota Camry that has noticeable damage to

the front right bumper. This car has been seen in
several areas across Philadelphia, including Center City, mount Airy, Grace, Ferry,
